Cleanliness
7.8
Generally reported as clean in many reviews, but several comments note 'not very very clean' and multiple mentions of many cats in public areas which lowered perceived cleanliness.
Service
9.4
Consistently praised across reviews — friendly, attentive and helpful staff; many guests called staff 'the friendliest' and noted professional, welcoming service.
Location
9
Frequently highlighted as a strong point: central, convenient for moving around Kampala and beautiful surroundings, though a few rooms face the street and can be noisy.
Room Quality
8.6
Rooms described as spacious and comfortable with good balconies and views; some negatives like stiff pillows, older TVs and occasional cleanliness/noise issues.
Amenities
8.8
Strong amenities noted (two restaurants, pool, spa, buffet breakfast); limited children's activities and intermittent internet in rooms reduced this slightly.
Value for Money
8.7
Not widely discussed in reviews; set to the target overall rating in absence of consistent commentary.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast and on-site restaurants receive frequent praise for quality, variety and portions, though isolated comments suggest breakfast could be improved or room service charging questioned.
Overall Experience
8.3
Many guests report an excellent, peaceful and pleasurable stay and would return; however issues like noise for some rooms, intermittent internet, cats and pillow comfort slightly temper the overall score.

Pleasurable. For next trip bringing kids with me.
Pros:

Quite and peaceful oasis in the middle of Kampala. Nice and green surroundings. Super quite - excellent for good sleep after long office days. good choice of food. Area provides nice opportunities to relax. Good SPA services.

Cons:

Bed and pillows definitely could have been bit more comfortable ( stiff and robust). Internet was disappearing now and then, but that is Uganda in general thought.

Facilities & Staff are excellent!
Pros:

Facilities and staff are excellent.. Great buffet breakfast that seems to cater for all guests. Two restaurants on site, one with Asian food and the Coco Bar Restaurant, both serve top quality food and good size portions. Third hotel we have stayed at in Kampala and this is the best for facilities. Biggest thing for me is that all the staff say "You are most welcome" and best of all, I believe every one of them meant it.. Fairway owners should be proud of their team.. well done to all 😁

Cons:

Not a lot of activities for children apart from swimming pool (our 2 year old son was happy enough though).
